For a theme party centered around aviation, a steampunk evening, or a parade featuring vintage aircraft, the brown pilot goggles are the accessory that instantly completes your look. The brown pilot goggles are aviator goggles with copper-colored rims, dark lenses, and padded brown leather-look edges, suitable for both women and men. You can wear them on your forehead or over your eyes, just as pilots in early open cockpits did.
What exactly do the brown pilot goggles look like?
- The two oval lenses are darkly tinted and catch a blue-purple reflection in the photo.
- Each lens is surrounded by a copper-colored rim, with a brown cord threaded through the side.
- The edges that come into contact with your face are lined with brown material with a leather-like texture.
- There is a wide brown elastic band with a sliding buckle at the back, allowing you to fit the goggles around your head.
- The frame and lining are made of polyester and PVC.
The aviator goggles from the open cockpit
Aviator goggles became necessary when pilots flew in open cockpits and needed to protect their eyes from wind, oil, and insects. The design with two separate, deeply curved lenses and a soft edge around the face was directly inspired by this, which is why it appears just as often in steampunk as in classic aviation looks. Modern pilot sunglasses with thin temples do not evoke that atmosphere, because it is precisely the wide band and padded edge that complete the image of an early aviator.
Styling the brown pilot goggles with accessories
A brown aviator cap or leather-look hat matches the color of the goggles' edges beautifully. Further combine with a brown scarf, gear pins, or a copper-colored chain for a steampunk touch. If you want to emphasize the flying feel, some gray face paint along the cheeks works surprisingly well as a streak of motor oil.
